A specialty in medicine is a branch of medical science, other than general practice. After completing medical school, physicians or surgeons usually further their medical education in a specific specialty of medicine by completing a multiple year residency. Doctors who engage in a medical specialty are known as medical specialists. The mean annual salary of a medical specialist is $175,011[1] in the US, and $272,000 [1] for surgeons. Although medical specialists in other countries on average make less than those in the U.S., they also go through fewer years of training, and most, if not all, of their educational tuition and living expenses are funded by the government during these years. In some countries (e.g., Austria, Netherlands)[2], specialty pay as a percentage of GDP per capita actually exceeds the U.S. Specialty training in Australia and New Zealand is overseen by the specialty colleges
